We are looking forward to summer and celebrations

We are looking forward to summer and celebrations in the Hamptons! Reflecting on a gorgeous wedding reception at Topping Rose House with Emma + Joe. It was truly a unique celebration, blending both of their families’ cultures from Serbia and Italy.

Honey + Vinyl started off the evening with music for cocktails and dinner. Guests were treated to a few surprises during dinner, one of them being a performance by famous Serbian singer-songwriter Tamara Jokic. Infused Rakija (brandy) was poured for toasts that the bride’s family brought over from Serbia. Honoring the groom’s Italian heritage, the wedding cake was the traditional Italian Millefoglie filled with Chantilly-style cream and fruits of the forest created by Sugar Sugar.

Slavic Soul Party, an American Balkan brass/jazz band, surprised guests with a Flash Mob, as they transitioned guests from dinner to the after party where DJ Kristaval took over for a night of dancing. After party snacks were provided by the groom’s burger joint and everyone had fun posing in the photo booth.

It was definitely a night to remember!

We love a beautiful and thoughtful invitation, ins

We love a beautiful and thoughtful invitation, inspired by the location of a celebration. The creation of save-the-dates, menus, fans, programs, maps, napkins, cups and, of course, the invitation itself. Which brings us to these 4 letters; we have seen them on invitations for years — RSVP.   Répondez s'il vous plait. The expression dates back 179 years. The initial use of this abbreviation, "RSVP," was first observed in France in 1845. The RSVP gained popularity in English society during the 20th century, and American author and etiquette expert Emily Post wrote about its significance in her book, Emily Post's Etiquette, published in 1922.  When we receive an invitation with the request to RSVP, the Emily Post Institute says, "No matter how you receive an invitation, it's critical to let your host know if you'll be accepting...or not. It's just as important to let your host know if you can't attend as it is to let him or her know if you can."  RSVPs are crucial for event preparation, budget management, guest experience, communication, and the observance of social etiquette.

Please enjoy the invitation, feel the paper, appreciate the design, and get excited for the celebration. And don’t forget to RSVP! #thankyouforcomingtomytedtalk

The welcome dinner is a trend we have seen in the weekend-long wedding celebrations. A welcome party provides an opportunity for your guests, especially those who may not know each other well, to mingle and get acquainted in a more relaxed atmosphere. Helping to break the ice and create a more comfortable environment for everyone attending the wedding. A friendly, relaxed atmosphere with great music, a campfire, and s’mores makes for the best celebration.

We are traveling again, this time to Tortuga Bay R

We are traveling again, this time to Tortuga Bay Resort in Punta Cana. Our first day, we were met with white glove service, which flew us into their private airport with expedited immigration and customs process and whisked us and our bags away right to our transportation to the resort. We had a fun first day exploring the property and gathering with the other guests for a delicious dinner with local and cultural entertainment. DAY TWO — breakfast & lunch were on property, with a tour of Tortuga Bay Resort in between. The afternoon was spent at the Ecological Reserve & Natural Springs with a beautiful dinner on the beach with a steel drum band. DAY THREE, we started our morning off with breakfast on property, lovely spa services and participating in Pack for a Purpose (see below for more info). The afternoon was lunch on a catamaran, soaking up some sun. Finishing the day with an Estate Experience and cocktails, followed by dinner in a Private Villa. #doesithavetoend #workinginparadise

Thank you to @rachel.leigh.events for organizing this beautiful trip and to Tortuga Bay Resort for the lovely hospitality and giving us a peak into what your beautiful resort has to offer their guests for stays and celebrations.
